Heya's did any of you folk attend this by chance? There were quite a few pyrates there....almost thought one of the members of here was there....????

I agree it only took us 1/2 to get there but then the long line in was a pain in the ahem.....I still had a great time at faire..it was bloody hot but it was still fun!!! It seems it will be a go for next year for the faire at that spot!!!!!! See you there next year.....

Okay we're meeting on the 22nd where and what time ??????????? OOPS...sorries..just went back and read front gate at noon...

OKAY ya seadawgs....who's going to the last day o faire...22nd?...I would like to go and plan to meet up with a bunch o yous scoundrels..lmao....how be it?

Diego, that sounds like a good plan!!!!!!!!!!!!

So saying all of that....and knowing that there is ale to be found..is there any plans of a group from here going to faire?

Don't know which weekend I will be attending..waiting fer some new garb to arrive first...Anyone else going for future weekends...any plans for any of the members here to gather at a certain point for any given day?

Okay so who's going?

oops wrong post

I agree tis stupid...I used to always think that of Medevil times as well...me and me g/f went a long time ago on Halloween with our Ren Faire outfits and fit in well into the crowd...When it was Buffallo bills..i remember i was into CW dancing then and had a great black saloon girl dress and the saloon girl boots to use and it was great...now that I am into more pyratey affairs..tis would be nice ifn we could all go there in costume as perhaps a group occasion?

Perrrrfeeeecttt and I started taking B/Dancing this past summer....got any coin bras? I have tons of hip scarfs need tops to go wit em...hope to check out your shoppe soon!!!! Specially 'fore Faire starts in the spring...any connections on Ghawazee coats/tops?

me exact sentiments as the same as pynch's

Jolie...I am probably the closest to you I hail from El Segundo 10 minutes away on 405 to 110... give us a shout out.....PYRATE PARTY EH?

RhumbaRue...he he he..that's what I did....I originally sewed some gold trim on it...but am now in the process of removing it and sewing some more authentic gold trim on it (antique gold 2 inches wide). Mine is a burgandy velvet

Thanks Claire for clearing that up,,, was getting lost in all the posts what was what...always nice to know a bit of trivia...and Pynch thanks for that wonderful info on tat's about placement...wow that makes total sense...kinda like good aura...something facing towards you and all....

thanks sorry for posting the same type of topic again

Nigel and Capt'n Coyote..... Exactly "Pirates" from ELP is one of my favorites...one I listen to when putting myself in the pyratemood...!!! :)

....oh yeah,,,nver enough men to go around !!!! I think there's a shortage of 'em... an whar do you go buy 'em in port...

I agree with you, can never have enough! One of these days will invest in a new hat. I found a great one once on one costume website and have since forgotten where that site was. I purchased a long time ago from Knotts Berry Farm a pistola (kid's pop toy...actually pops a cap if you set one in) and it looks very authentic. I have a picture of myself holding it but don't know how to post a pic inside these post boxes (if you can-brand spanking new to this site). I have several full skirts that I use one is a full circle silk one that I found at a thrift shop and those go for big bucks on the belly dance sites. Looking for a new boostier instead of white frilly shirt and waist cincher....and perhaps getting one of the belly dance fluted shirts to wear under the boostier. Here's a website that I have bookmarked for Pirate gear...http://www.talesofthesevenseas.com/Costuming.html

Pynch...OH yes that one too for sure now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOW how much fun is that! Hope it spreads to the western banks!!!!

My first fav. is by Emerson Lake and Palmer..(ELP)...from Works Vol 1..called Pirates. My second fav. is by Metalica...Whiskey in the Jar.

Sigh tiss not good to be alone.....especially on a starlit night and the moon is full. Aye, I be looking for me Pyrate to sail into my port, been waiting all my life... Alas keep high hopes for that dream to come true.
